Hi guys, I recently set up Tidal Hi Fi running through a 2Qute DAC yesterday. Sounded amazing and I stayed up into the wee hours revisiting all my music.

So fast forward to this morning, I wake up like a kid on Christmas ready to listen some more and...I can only get sound output on the lap top. It won't output to my DAC.

Checked all my settings on the computer and Tidal and nothing has changed. Output is set to the 2Qute DAC. I also switched output to the computer then back to the DAC. Interestingly enough, when I use Google Play music, it outputs just fine to the stereo. I also closed out Google Play and tried Tidal again with no luck.

Computers, eh? It's one reason I'm having difficulty getting into streaming. Sh!t like this happens when all you want is to a hear a song....

Oh I can entirely relate. I am not tech saavy at all. Drives me bonkers. I haven't had one phone, computer etc that didn't have silly glitches that make me pull my hair out. But wow, really enjoying the bump up in sound quality.

Make sure you use the Tidal desktop app rather than the browser streamer. It sounds much better, as it will recognize your DAC drivers. At least the Windows 10/Chrome this was my experience. I tested it on a Hegel HD12 and Bryston BDA3/BUC-1 to make sure. Sounded pretty flat using the browser to stream.
